Empire State Building climbers

[isufbcurt]

How is there not a thread about the Empire State Building climbers today?

That was badass!! No harnesses or straps. The f ing nuts on some people!!

I just started watching their documentary on Netflix.

My biggest accomplishment was climbing the steps of the Friley arch after a hard night of drinking without falling down.

Wonder if this stuff settles down a bit once someone falls. Cause it’s bound to happen eventually.

Quite the marriage proposal.

It has in some places.

Saw a gator got someone recently in Georgia...people will still swim in the rivers they live in.

Im 20 minutes into their documentary and my butt is puckered and have a little queeziness from the views of climbs.

They have sponsors that pay them to go do climbs!!

The greatest free climber Alex Honnold said to an interview once, 'you don't do this unless you've done the work before to know you won't fall.'

I couldn’t even watch the video. My fear of heights was in overdrive.

Yep, it's like walking up stairs for these guys.

When I was a lad we went up 50’ on extension ladders to paint our barns. I’ll call that “good enuf”. (Wasp nests were up there too.)

They climbed Merdeka 118 in Mayalsia.

They really do their research!!!

Honnold is great but Marc-André Leclerc was the greatest IMO.

You’re really afraid of commitment, eh?

 

[Marcelason78]

Russian daredevils evidently.

Unless they fall on someone

Unless they fall on someone

Unlikely but we are a society that worries about the most obscure crap.

is he still alive?

Unless they fall on someone

A bunch of people knew about it and stared up at it so they took their own risk too.

Now if you get random stuff like if they smashed through a window on the way down to someone just in their office that's different.

Also a security breach. Those silly Russians.
